Not if I'm honest  I'd like to be optimistic, but that would be the triumph of hope over experience |

He dropped the most ridiculously easy catch.
What a wonderful display of batting, but they had me going in the last over.

WI without Gayle or India without Kohli  It'll be a good game this afternoon if both sides are on song, but i think India will edge it as they have home and pitch advantage  Think, on the whole I'd rather we faced India.....but....... I'm out all day on Sunday at a quilt exhibition in Exeter and I can't change it  ( I never thought we'd get to the final  ) So I'll record it and , unless we get hammered, catch up with it on Sunday evening  |

WI it is then, I think that's better on account of we don't play spin very well.

 Why Ben, why bowl like that in the last over, we had it won by keeping them from getting runs. |

Poor James Taylor, such a good long term prospect for England.Still, better to retire than die at 26  |
